LIVE MUSIC REVIEW: Edinburgh International Festival's Up Late series featuring Alabaster DePlume (@alabasterdeplume.bsky.social) provides a lovingly curated evening of warmth, humour and communal spirit

Bernie Sanders still can’t bring himself to say “genocide.” On a recent CNN appearance, when pressed to label the slaughter of more than 60 000 Palestinians and the starvation of children as genocide he defaulted to legal deflection.

Thank you @alabasterdeplume.bsky.social for a truly amazing night at #zonnehuis in Amsterdam. Dinner at @tuindorpdelicious and a -sometimes painfully-beautiful, vulnerable, sincere, unfeigned performance of 5 outstanding musicians. 🙏 You really took us to the market in Ramallah.

The Israeli government’s closure of six UNRWA schools in Jerusalem has left over 800 Palestinian students without school, and has thrown an entire community into limbo. Residents say it's all part of a larger attack on Palestinian refugees.

Israel carried out its plan to erase Gaza over the course of 18 months. Now that the plan has clearly fallen into place, the Netanyahu government is openly discussing ethnic cleansing. And still, Israel enjoys complete international impunity. mondoweiss.net/2025/05/exte...

WE RECOMMEND: Alabaster DePlume: A Blade Because A Blade Is Whole "There’s no wallowing in the depths of despair on DePlume’s latest, nor is there an attempt to romanticize pain and struggle. Instead, it’s presented as a tool, an inherent centerpiece of growth." @alabasterdeplume.bsky.social

Nice wee reminder to buy the excellent new @alabasterdeplume.bsky.social LP. #ThatWasNotACarPark #ThatWasMyGarden www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottis...
